Dear All,
   I'm stoked with the performance of my electronics and it's now time to consider something a little different for speakers. I've owned my NotePerfect Ovations since 2000 and I've loved them, but I'm wanting to try something a little different.

So, can you tell me what speakers you use with your Proprius and the general strengths you perceive in the combination?

Cheers,
Mick.

For the last couple of years Monitor Audio GX300's with Spatia internal wiring and my crossover level mods. I have also had the Proprius connected to GX100's, an old set of AE 505's, and a variety of test speakers. The amps work wonders with anything.

I have the Proprius amps next to the GX300's using very short speaker cable runs and balanced cable for the longer run from Majestic to Proprius amps. I recommend trying this if you can.

I have had my Monitor Audio SR6 floorstanding speakers for more than twelve years now, and I think they make a very nice couple with the Proprius. A very well-balanced and rounded (?) sound - even if a bit (too)bright maybe, now and then(?) But I am thinking about stepping up to a 'better' pair of speakers. I am not certain yet which ones I would prefer/choose, but possibly Monitor Audio, because I love their general sound signature.

Originally ProAc Response One SE monitors but lately Frugal Horn XL kit speakers. They have usurped the ProAcs (which I can't quite believe).

Proprii power either with easy.

I don't yet have a pair of Proprii (shouldn't be too long now). They'll be with a pair of Spendor A5s. Having heard "the boy's" Frugal Horn 3s, I'd love to try the XLs, but there just isn't the space in the sitting room.

Hi. How did you find them driving Spendor A5s? Or anyone else with lower sensitivity speakers?
I will be in the market for a new amp in a couple of weeks and Majestic with Proprius seem very intriguing. I think I will give Jon a shout once I get back from holiday in 2 weeks time to see if I can try this combination.

Regards,
Aurimas

A loan would definitely be the best way to go! 

My Proprii drive some PMC Gb1i speakers, but these are pretty efficient. Fantastic sound, with Graham's Spatia speaker cable too Wink.
